Henry Owens impressive, but Red Sox provide no help in loss to Yankees

NEW YORK -- The worst pitch Henry Owens made in his major league debut was a sinking changeup that might’ve fooled a lesser hitter, but Alex Rodriguez blasted it to the center field wall for a double.

But nothing from Owens was left in the middle of the plate. Nothing was whacked out of the yard.

As for the best pitch Owens made during the Red Sox' 13-3 loss to the Yankees Tuesday night? Take your pick.

There was the 2-2 slider that fooled Jacoby Ellsbury, caused him to wave his bat wildly and then throw his lumber toward the dugout in disgust.
